BASEPLATE COMPASS WITH MAGNIFYING LENS  FOR BACKPACKERS

Suunto A-30 is a reliable baseplate compass for navigating and surviving in extreme conditions. Depending on the variant, A-30 comes with Metric UTM scales and inch ruler or USGS UTM scales.

The Earth’s magnetic field does not flow evenly between the magnetic poles along the surface of the planet. To compensate for the natural tilt in the magnetic field, Suunto compasses use one of two balancing systems and you should choose the variant best serving your needs.

One is a two-zone system with needles balanced for either the northern or southern hemisphere. The second is a unique globally balanced system. A single needle is balanced to work anywhere in the world. This is achieved by a breakthrough construction allowing the needle and magnet to tilt independently.

Stable operation

The compass liquid used by Suunto is specially formulated to provide damping over a large temperature range while preventing the needle from sticking.

Detachable snap-lock lanyard

The lanyard with wristlock is easy to detach for working with the map.

Made in Finland

All Suunto compasses are handcrafted at our factory with 100% renewable energy.

Sustainable design from Finland

Suunto compasses are born from a legacy of Finnish innovation, crafted with precision and reliability that has guided adventurers since 1936. Designed and manufactured in Finland, each compass reflects Suunto’s commitment to quality, durability, and environmental responsibility. Made with 100% renewable energy, our compasses are built to last ensuring they remain a trusted companion for years of exploration. 
For greater transparency, we’ve calculated a category-level carbon footprint for selected field compass models, representing the average climate impact of a compass in this category. 

Read more about our climate actions and purchased voluntary carbon credits.

Carbon footprint 1.3 kg CO2e

According to a category-level Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Suunto field compasses*, one compass in this category creates on average 1.3 kg CO₂e emissions during its whole lifespan. 1.3 kg CO₂e equals to, for example, driving a fossil fuel car for 8 kilometers.

We have fully offset the lifespan emissions of all compasses in this category with Verified Carbon Units.

*Including A-10, A-30, M-3, M-3 Global, AIM-6, AIM-30, MCB, MC-2, MC-2 Global, MB-6 and MB-6G compasses

Made with 100% renewable energy

Suunto factory, where Suunto compasses are made, is located in Vantaa, Finland. Here we use 100% renewable, carbon neutral energy in all our operations. This is a key factor in enabling the Suunto compass to achieve a small carbon footprint of 1.3 kg CO₂e* over its full lifespan.

*Based on average category-level emissions for selected Suunto field compasses, including A-10, A-30, M-3, M-3 Global, AIM-6, AIM-30, MCB, MC-2, MC-2 Global, MB-6, and MB-6G.

100% carbon offset

We offset the lifetime CO₂e emissions of each sold Suunto compass* with Verified Carbon Units via Tree-Nation. The offset is done in a reforestation project in Southeast Africa that plants trees, protects biodiversity, and supports local communities in creating sustainable livelihoods.

*This applies to Suunto field compasses including A-10, A-30, M-3, M-3 Global, AIM-6, AIM-30, MCB, MC-2, MC-2 Global, MB-6, and MB-6G.
